2^{} (1)/(3) =
(7)/(3)
(mixed fraction can be solve into simple fraction be multiplying denominator by the middle number then add the nominator. In this case, 3 x 2 + 1 = 7. 7 is the new nominator and denominator is same as mixed fraction.)
Thus,
(7/3) ÷ (1/2) = (7/3)(2/1) = 14/3
(when dividing fraction be fraction, you can change it to multiplication by flipping divisor)
Therefore, The simplest form would be 14/3
